Of course I know about VGcats. I didn’t know about that particular AC comic that he did. I haven’t read all of his comics.

I already amended the description above to give due credit to VGcats for doing it first. What more do you want? I’m not trying to copy anybody here, it’s just hard to come up with original ideas when they’ve pretty much been done before. Similar jokes are going to happen.

Wellll… I suppose I can understand that. Sorry for being rude. If I may impart some advice, lurk moar. If you know most of whats already been done, you’ll be less likely to unintentionally repost a joke.

I understand that it’s been so long that you probably don’t care about this, or are simply tired of it, but I’d just like to thank you. Thank you for the work you out into this and for the pride you have in it, as a reader that’s all that is asked that you actually care for what you do as much as or more than we do. Thank you again and sorry for bringing you back here.

Jesus, you’re an asshole. How dare she have the same thought while playing the same game! You know, a thought that tons of other people had! To even suggest that Celesse should read all the gaming comics out there to make sure she doesn’t get the same idea as other people is beyond stupid.

As for VGcats, it hasn’t been funny in years. I haven’t read it in years. I wouldn’t know what the current comics are, but I’m sure that they’d be very similar to all the bazillion other gaming comics out there. It’s not groundbreaking material.

So get off your high horse and purchase some common sense and logic. And some social etiquette while you’re at it.

Jesus, what is WRONG with you? Seriously! What kind of crippling mental handicap makes someone act the way you do? And this nonsense about reading every single webcomic ever so you know every joke ever told? Further evidence of your issues, I guess.

Uh… You’re right to be upset about this, but seriously, even though this is more than half a year later, you should REALLY know better than to make insults based on someone having mental handicaps. That’s WAY different than calling someone stupid, because people can’t help those; they’re born with them.
It’s not much different than insulting someone by calling them gay.

So just because you can’t come up with anything original that means you feel the need to pretend that you hadn’t known about the thing you’re copying but insist on using plagiarism? You’re comic sucks and I’m done reading it God I’d rather read Awkward Zombie or virtual shackles and I might as well be making jokes while playing skyrim even the Brentalfloss comic is better than this

Just saying, this concept is actually very different from VG cats’. In theirs, the blade stabs through him and I’m pretty sure he’s dead. xD This one seems like it’s explaining that very similar scar in AC. Which is really clever; I looove this comic, Celeese. Your style is so memorable. <3

I honestly believe I have never met anyone so stupid in my entire life. So the comic is similar, are you honestly so mentally incompetent that you cannot see that it is not that big a deal, please go do the world a favor and die horribly in a fire

I love both vgcats and gamercat. I look to vgcats for his negative reviews, while I look to gamercat for her cute positive thoughts on games. Though I admit I lean more to gamercat because vgcats could get a bit perverted, but he’s a guy, so it’s expected.
Similar ideas always and will happen. To me I like when that happens, it means I get to see it in more than one way. xb

Congrats, no one cares! Yes these are the same idea, but seriously, getting this pissed over one comic being the same. I’m a big fan of VG Cats and only came across this through VG Cats (That’s how I found this argument), and for hating this comic, that’s just your opinion, these comics are nice and the art is well done. I still prefer VG Cats over The Gamer Cat, but this is still nice to read (I prefer VG Cats because its a bit more mature than this). Its good to have a young aged friendly gaming comic on the internet.

I like your comic much better than the other. I’ve had similar ideas to comics before, but I’ve always managed to represent an old joke in a unique and funny way, like you’ve done. Even if you knew the joke existed, an idea is not copyright. You have every right to make this.
And i love it! It’s awesome, funnier, and less gory. Much better than the other. It’s original.

Also, to the people raging about how VG Cats did this first, if you’re going to be so harsh, why don’t you make your own webcomic, yeah? With your obviously superior artist ability and wit.

I do enjoy VG Cats, but their updates have gotten so slow, I don’t even bother to check their website. And personally, while Scott has a nice style, I would still prefer The Gamercat to VG Cats even if they updated more often.

What a lot of unemployed people with soooooo much free time. Pathetic. You’d think that VGCats got the patent! It’s like saying no more fighting videogames must be made… lots of brands had released similar ones much before!! Sacrilege!

I love your art, Celesse :) It’s simple and clean, funny and shrewd!

I needed to say it. (even a year after) You may publish a whole book with all the comments XD

Well, no wonder he got hurt like that. He put the blade on the wrong hand, then completely forgot about it! Not that he needs it anyway, what with his razor-sharp feline claws. Nothing wrong with a little blade redundancy, though.

Nothing is original nowadays :) It is all in the execution, and for all intents and purposes, having read both yours and VGCats’version, I can safely say I consider yours better, both in artistic execution and punchline. So keep it up :)

I think I enjoyed reading the comments more than the comic on this one. Although it isn’t a bad one. Plus I don’t fault the artist/writer for such an incident. If one were to pay attention to other things that have small pools of inspirational material you will likely find similarity between them. Take visual kei for one example they are groups within their own right and have a distinctive sound if you listen long enough but to an outsider they all seem the same or nearly the same. Which given the fact that some do come from an old band that disbanded then formed a new band from fragments of other ones similarities are bound to occur. Now to apply that knowledge to this: two comics with a similar theme. One they both are cat related and two they have a common game. Its not surpising that out of the millions of people two webcomics with similar basings would create a similar comic and who knows this VGcats person could”ve gotten it from someone else perhaps an artist who was doing as a fan art with the characters of the game. Now chew on that Ima go on reading

Thank you for such a great expression on why you hate this Joke. Now please take your ‘ creativity”, and go to Mars with it, then take off your space helmet. To put it simply, take your face, and get the (Mao) out.
